Everything was as expected from past stays. The fob that used to open boom gates has now been replaced by a code and keypad.

This place was amazing for the kids. Although the cabins were small our family of four made it work, highly recommend, definitely be back in the warmer seasons to utilise all the activities they have to offer.

A great stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Discovery Parks Ballina. We had the 2 bedroom waterfront view cabin. 85
It is a very comfortable cabin. It was very clean, beds are comfortable & the shower is roomy & with great hot water pressure
The verandah is a great place to enjoy the winter sunshine, enjoying a cuppa or cool drink.
For the Management, the screen door could do with some maintence, its very hard to close

We booked a superior 2 bedroom chalet off the internet which had walk in shower and modern updated kitchen with bunk beds and double bed in other room. We received an outdated cabin which was pet friendly (not required or asked for) and which had a shower over a huge spa bath with high wall to climb into. Not good for a 74 year old with arthritis in knees. Asked for what we booked to be told nothing available and next day received a slip mat to put in shower. Next issue was shower head which fell off so unable to have shower for that night. 4 phone calls before someone contacted us back on our issue. The caravan park itself was nice but very dark at night and we arrived at 11pm and had to drive around a couple of times till we found our cabin tucked in between caravan and other cabins.

Great location. Property was well organised and accessible. Cabin was a bit old but certainly functional and
comfortable. Reception was understaffed on arrival due to lunch break. This meant people were left waiting.
